Opening Night - Friday June 3 – of RED John Logan's Tony Award Winner for Best Play will feature some extra special events!

 

But, you say, the show starts Thursday, why isn't Thursday opening? Because Thursday is a Preview Performance.- Preview is an industry term which means tha tyou are in perfomrance but you are also still in rehearsal. Of course audiences see the full show, but directors and designers are making adjustments based on audience response and there is still rehearsal with the actors during the day. Once a show officially opens the directors and designers jobs are done.

So - our Opening Night of RED - on Friday June 3 - will feature a few extra perks for audience members to celebrate the occassion!

First:  Sweet Melissa's will be on hand to provide a Cash Bar. logo for Sweet Melissa's

Unlike other nights, when LNT has to remain "dry" to abide by City Hall (and Vt Liquour Control laws) on Friday Tom Moog's Sweet Melissa's will be there for you to purchase a glass of wine, beer, or perhpas a "spirit".

Second:  Artist Galen Cheney attends and Live Music will fill the air
